I agree, it was hard to adjust to the 'Indianapolis Colts', the 'St. Louis Rams', 'LA Raiders' and the 'Phoenix Cardinals' ... for me anyway. I was glad Cleveland fought to keep the 'Browns' name ... it's an identity thing.

*hey Crusader, we got a hockey group going ... not that you're being recruited or anything ...

Agreed. The name of the team has to do with the city where the team was founded.
Saints belongs and makes sense to New Orleans. November 1 doesn't mean anything other than it is the 1st day of November in other cities.
Patriots makes sense being in Mass., and even called New England.
There are other football teams in the New England states and I don't which team came first, but NEP makes sense.
Phoenix Cardinals, are there Cardinal birds in Phoenix, AZ? LOL. I assume the heat there would smother them in flight, LOL!!!

... upon further review, I agree, LA doesn't deserve a team ... and, um ... I'm trying to get a closer look at the players in your avatar ... um ... is that a Panther player (I'm assuming) Jimmie Graham is pulling into the endzone with him?

That's Jimmy Graham fighting one of your boys, SloMotion, to get into the endzone in the Wildcard game in New Orleans. Took it myself from up in the rafters.

... ouch! ... the close up ... I had to ask, lol! I thought that was Amari Spievey trying to hold Graham out ... what a great shot though, can't believe you got that from the nose-bleeds. Checked out your other ones too, some nice shots.
